Red Mark Again.
We are sending out to all our daily subscri
bers, whose time expires before the Ist No
vember a back number of our paper, with a
cross mark, and the day on which their sub
scription terminates, entered on the margin
of the paper with a red pencil. Let all who
wish to continue renew in time. We cannot
send out our paper without the money in
advance Advertising is almost nominal,
and we live and are able to publish our paper
almost from subscriptions alone.
And let all who can, send us $5 in advance
for a year's subscription. It will cost them
less and be of very great advantage to us.—
The time and labor of re entering monthly
subscriptions is a daily tax on us, while some
other portion of our business is suffering for
want of our attention.
To Correspondents.
A few words to those who write articles
which they wish to appear in our columns :
If you write anything of local interest only,
let it be rer xziorf .- we eannot spare the space
in our paper and pay our printers for setting
up a long article, when we know that only a
tew of our readers will take any interest in
it.
When you write anything of general inter
est, make it as short as possible. Strike out all
amplifications. Don't hang on and hang on,
and spin it out and spin it out, but gather up
your burning thoughts into a focus, and give
the strong points in a few words. Don’t send
us a long article.
If you are going to become offended, if we
decline to publish your communication, don’t
send it to us. We don’t want to offend you,
and we had rather take the chances of miss
ing a good article than of giving offense.
Don’t ask us to return your communication
if it is rejected. Save the five cent piece you
would enclose for us to prepay postage on re
turning it. If you have any doubt about our
publishing it, keep a copy. We positively
have not time to return articles we decline to
publish.
We receive a large number of attempts at
poetry Nine-tenths of these we decline.—
Very few persons who attempt‘.o write poetry
can be convinced that their productions are
sorry. Let all your first attempts at poetry
be submitted to some one of well-known
scholarship and literary attainments, before
ottering them to the press. ts

Savannah.
An election for Mayor occurred in this city
on Monday last which resulted in no choice
being made. There were quite a number of
candidates, and among them no one got a ma
jority.
Thrasher and Pitts Light Guards.
The above is the name of the 14th company
from Fulton county, gone into actual service.
This fine looking company is commanded by
Capt. Wash Johnson, and left here on Tuesday
last for Brunswick, Georgia.
Capt. Johnson is a son of the late Col. An
drew Johnson, who was proprietor of Stone
Mountain in DeKalb. We predict for him an
honorable career as an officer. When only 17
years old, he crossed the Rocky Mountains on
foot. After two years sojourn in California,
laboring in the gold mines, he returned to
Georgia, resumed his studies and graduated at
Emory College.
Ke studied Law in this city under Col. Cal
houn, and since his admission to the bar has
been a partner of G. B. Haygood, Esq. He has
strong will, untiring energy, and is dead game.
Success to him and his gallant company.
♦
lion. M. J. Crawford.
This distinguished and able statesman is a
candidate for the Confederate Congress in the
third district. We witnessed in Washington
bis congressional career. He is vigilant, ac
tive, and always discharges his duties with
signal ability and fidelity. He has but few
equals as a wise and efficient legislator. We
have no doubt he will be elected. He will be
one of the leading men in our national coun
cils. Would that we could have more like
him.
Exporting Cotton.
The following resolution was adopted by the
Confederate Congress in secret session on the
17th of August, and made public on the 29th
of August;
Resolved, That the Congress heartily ap
prove of and commend the course pursued by
the Cotton Planters and Factors of the coun
try, in sendfhg no cotton forward from the in
terior to the seaports of the Confederacy, dur
ing the existence of the blockade, and the de
termination of the Insurance Companies to
insure the crops only when retained on the
plantation.

This able and fearless defender of Southern

Green, Kentucky.
We are indebted to Lt. T. F. Hooper, of
Rome, for the first issue under this arrange
ment. He was on his way to his post at Sa

[Special Dispatch from Washington ]
Washington. Wednesday, Oct. Lhh. Com
mander Cbauticy arrived here this evening
from Hatteras Inlei. He reports that on Mon
day the rebels organized an expedition to at
tack and recapture the forts occupied by our
forces. The expedition consisted of fix steam
boats and about three thousand men. The
steamers were armed with heavy rifled can
non and mortars for throwing shells. The
attack was simultaneous, but ineffectual
The forts fired shell, and were assisted by
the vessels stationed off the Inlet. After a
time the rebels retired, thoughmot before two
or three steamer, had been sunk, going down
with all on board. Judging from the crowd
ed appearance of the vessels, it ig estimated
that about seven hundred men were drowned.
Besides a large loss must huve been sustain
ed from the bursting of our shell and the
plunging of our shot, as the guns were ser
ved in a most masterly manner.
